Ontology-driven personalized information retrieval for XML documents

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2603.21139v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper addresses the challenge of improving information retrieval from semi-structured eXtensible Markup Language (XML) documents. Traditional information retrieval systems (IRS) often overlook user-specific needs and return identical results for the same query, despite differences in users' knowledge, preferences, and objectives. We integrate external semantic resources, namely a domain ontology and user profiles, into the retrieval process. Documents, queries, and user profiles are represented as vectors of weighted concepts. The ontology applies a concept-weighting mechanism that emphasizes highly specific concepts, as lower-level nodes in the hierarchy provide more precise and targeted information. Relevance is assessed usin
